My photographic adventures on the other side of the world

Where the streets have no name

We were in Baden the other night for a rather special dinner and got particularly lucky with the timing of the rain showers. I spied this scene as we were sitting down to dinner and immediately knew that I needed to capture it in black and white. The first draw was of course the spectacular church steeple with the wonderful tiling pattern and the fog rising from the forest behind it. The wet road that draws the eye to the church also looks fantastic in black and white. There are many other lines that also lead to the church, but my favourite story here is the apparent face-off between the buildings and the trees across the road. The age old conflict of nature and civilisation.
